Southern panache for your life
I recently went through a wardrobe cleanse. I decided that I hated nearly 90% of my current wardrobe, leaving behind what I felt was old, tired, and worn out. At least that’s how it felt. Now “hate” is a strong word — but you get the idea. I needed to hit the refresh button and

I am officially counting down the days until we head to the South of France later this month! We’ve had this vacation planned since Christmas and I can hardly believe that it’s coming up in just a few short weeks! I haven’t been to France since study abroad in 2011 (which is where all of

There is one thing that I know and it’s that this Jaded Mint color has taken over my wardrobe and my home decor. I’ve been feverishly buying up everything in this hue from our patio pillows to the throw pillows in our parlor, and now my wardrobe is getting a Jaded Mint refresh thanks to
I’ll be the first to admit, a daily beauty maintenance routine is only something I recently started adapting. Throughout my teenage years, I, like many of the 90’s, scrubbed with apricot scrub every day, washed with harsh salicylic acid and then maybe applied SPF if I was purposefully spending time outside.

Warning: A lot of selfies are coming up in this post. Going makeup free every day (especially in client meetings) is a pretty terrifying thought for me. If you’ve been following me on Instagram, I have mentioned a couple of times about my mild rosacea. I had always wondered why my face stayed excessively red
